Your outstanding photos speak well for the use of quality equipment and your ability to fully utilize their features.

I must reconsider my getting quality photo equipment vs. another rifle vs. the weight. Time is too short to acquire a better camera like yours as I leave in 7 days for my hunt.

However, the alternative is to ask Roland of trophyshotprints.com to do his magic to salvage and enhance my pics from a compact point and shoot camera.

Thanks for sharing guys. Love it and I'm glad nobody got hurt

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Just search for anything with Royal Kafue attached to it and you will be fine mate.

Shall I put aside an angry buff for you this year?
